Some of the states, through an agreement with ICC, posts their IBC-based code on line. Here is a link to Ohio's:

Sorry that I do not have a similar link for the example.

SK Ghosh and Associates teach most of the seismic design seminars I have been to. They probably have detailed published guides available. On their web page I quickly found this code guide to lead you through the 2006 IBC seismic requirements. Some of the notes of their classes are much more detailed on how to do the calculations. If you contact them I am sure they have what you want.
